Well, the good news is that it looks like whoever upgraded the instrument cluster with 56th Series Senior gauges also used matching radio and clock.

The bad news is the front seat does not appear to be original to the car - looks more like a transplant from a GM B-body or A-/G-body of the '70s or '80s.

Most of the 57 Clippers I have seen came with the signal seeking radio mine came from the factory with the radio and power anteenas The part number for the radio per shop mannual is PA484652THe build sheet lists the radio radio and ant as $107.80 amd the rear speaker $13.20 the car was built 1/25/57 delivered Feb 13 1957

Yeah, Brian, I shouldn't even have put that title on the pic, although the seat is in a '57 Clipper, even though it obviously can't be considered of a '57 Clipper!
